Woonsan Ko resolved APA-15.
---------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Added reverse proxied url replacement option and auto-resizing option.
If the IFrame portlet has preferences to map the local base path to the remote
base url, then the external url src will be replaced by the local path.
For example, if the following pairs are set by the preferences,
"PROXYREMOTEURL" = "http://portals.apache.org/";
"PROXYLOCALPATH" = "/jetspeed/webcontent/portals/"
then, the IFrame portlet will replace "http://portals.apache.org/""; of the src
attribute by "/jetspeed/webcontent/portals/".
If a portal web site administrator configures a reverse web proxy provider,
this feature can help that case.
Also, the portlet can have "AUTORESIZE" preference. If this preference is set
to true, then the portlet will try to resize the height of the iframe based on
the content height.
This "AUTORESIZE" preference option will not work if the iframe src url is in a
different domain url and it can make script errors.
So, if you want to use "AUTORESIZE" option with external domain urls, then you
might consider reverse proxied url option mentioned above.

>
> IFrame portlet needs to have auto-resizing of its height option.
> To accomplish this feature, the IFrame src url should be in the same domain
> as the hosting portal page.
> However, in many cases, the hosted iframe src url could be an external domain
> url.
> So, if there's a reverse proxy provider with the same domain for the external
> domain url, the IFrame portlet should be able to replace the external url to
> a local proxied url.
